I arrived to work as normal and at the time the radio was breaking news. I thought the local radio was goofing untill i reached the job! The biggest man on site was a volenteer fire fighter making a living as a havc installer was in full on tears!! Really hit hard when i saw that! Then all the news and devastation on tv! Never forget!

Nice!

Whats the reason for a bushing in the frame for the grip screws? Is this also common on other models? owner has had issues with these grips coming loose in the past and suspects gun smith locktited them on? This action seems a nogo if there is other moving parts involved!

Thanks for the links brother! Seems S&W as others are seceptable to this problemo? Im going to always put this as a chk down when cleaning!

A little but with not much info maybe not the right ?

I can do concrete!

Just asked my tile guy what he uses: (There are a couple types, Wedi pan and panels using sicaflex and schulter system. ) this is fail safe! But thats all i can offer! Carry on R2?

He's kinda partial to the original grips? Resale value i think.

Pistol in hand lets begin.. remove slide remaining broken pin falls right out ? ok remove grips... Im sure these screws were torqes at some point but not much to work with! First side was a chore and noticed something on the threads ?! Now for the other side.. Same thing but WTF!! This is where i learn about the grip screw bushing.. What is the point of this added part and why is it threaded thesame direction as the screw? ? Well adding new screws and bushing to the list! Hoping i can save the grips?

Maybe this guy hasnt read about the hot spot on the freeway around az? That may be why there seems to be heavy boots on the ground protecting his ass?

Thank you shepp this thread will be in my memory bank! Shotty looks dang good!

Good man jacob happy wife = happy life!

I have over a month before the season. By then all these big groups will move farther south.

The geese are taunting me!!

Things I trust more than Hillary: * Mexican tap water * A rattlesnake with a "pet me" sign * OJ Simpson showing me his knife collection * A fart when I have diarrhea * An elevator ride with Ray Rice * Taking pills offered by Bill Cosby * Michael Jackson's Doctor * An Obama Nuclear deal with Iran * A Palestinian on a motorcycle * Gas station Sushi * A Jimmy Carter economic plan * Brian Williams news reports * Obama's so-called Birth Certificate * Loch Ness monster sightings * Prayers for peace from Al Sharpton

This is the culpret in my 1911 tools thread.
